RISK OF DAMAGE TO INVERTER OR REMOTE. DO NOT USE A STANDARD TELEPHONE CABLE. USE A RJ-11 ‘TWISTED
CONNECTION’ TYPE CABLE.

2 OPERATION
2.1 LED Indication
The REMOTE-RS features a LED to display the inverter’s status:
• A steady light indicates that the inverter is ON.
• A fast flashing light indicates that the inverter is in Return Override Function (R.O.F)
mode (Section 2.2.1).
• A slow flashing light indicates that the inverter is in Ignition Lockout mode (Section 2.2.2).

2.2 Internal Jumper Pin (JP1)
The JP1 jumper pin is used to select the optional ‘Return Override’ or ‘Ignition lockout’ functions and can
be accessed by removing the screws at the rear of the remote. Both functions also require a +12VDC
supply connected to the ‘AUX’ connector via a 0.5A fuse. The jumper pin selects between two functions
as described below;
2.2.1 Return Override Function
If the Jumper pin is Open (not connecting the pins) the ‘Return Override’ function is selected. The Return
Override function is used to turn the inverter ON when the auxiliary input wiring is connected and has
+12V applied (for example, to turn the inverter ON when the vehicle’s ignition is ON). This is the default
position.
2.2.2 Ignition Lockout Function
If the Jumper pin is Shorted (connecting the pins) the ‘Ignition Lockout’ function is selected. The Ignition
Lockout function is used to turn the inverter OFF when the auxiliary input wire is connected and has
+12V applied (for example, to turn the inverter OFF when the vehicle’s ignition is ON).
2.3 Installation
Refer to Figure 1.2.2: for screw hole and cutout dimensions.
• Use the supplied cable to connect the REMOTE-RS to the inverter.
• Switch the inverter to the ‘REMO’ position to enable functionality of the remote.
